/* indefinite progress bar */
.loadingbar{
position:fixed;
width:100vw;
height:31px;
top:0px;

height:3px;
}
.inc{
animation: increase 2s infinite;
}
.dec{
animation: decrease 2s 0.5s infinite;
}
@keyframes increase {
from { left: -5%; width: 5%; }
to { left: 130%; width: 100%;}
}
@keyframes decrease {
from { left: -80%; width: 80%; }
to { left: 110%; width: 10%;}

🚀 What this video covers:
Creating a smooth, indefinite loading animation with custom HTML & CSS
Using Dash callbacks to control when the loading bar appears and disappears
Simulating data loading with a delay (`time.sleep`)
Updating content dynamically after loading completes
Working with `datetime.now()` to show live timestamps
Preparing CSS asset folder
💡 Unlike default dcc.Loading or dcc.Spinner, this example gives you full control over the look and timing of your loader — great for stylized dashboards!
